Anyone have good suggestions on how to get Killer Rhodes sounds? I have an old "seventy-three" and not the suitcase model. For most of my tune demos I plugged into a tube pre, cranked in a little distortion and went straight into the 'puter. Not a bad sound, but not a great one either. Now that I'm recording my tunes for "real" I definitely want a better sound. Basically something that sits in a mix better. Usually there's way too much bottom that I have to eq out and the levels are inconsistent (some notes stick out more than others). It just never sounds as smooth and creamy as I'd like it.
I've tried a few different amps, mics, pres, compressors, etc, but in the words of Bono, "I still haven't found what I'm looking for."
Granted, I haven't put an enormous amount of time into finding the right set up, but I'm hoping some people here can help me get there a little quicker!
Thanks!
